(Cat Flutter Chinese) July in Paris, France. Watermark Advertising TestingWatermark Advertising TestingLast year, in a track and field training base on the outskirts of Paris arranged by the French Athletics Association, Su Zu's research team was having a short meeting.

Since Su Zu reached the top of the IAAF points rankings last year, the goal of this year's research team is to regain the current world No. 1 ranking in the men's 00m.

Before July, Su Zu later participated in the Osaka Grand Prix, the New York Grand Prix and the Eugene Grand Prix, and the IAAF Golden League Oslo on the 5th of the month and the Czech International Athletics Federation Grand Prix on the 27th, Su Zu did not participate, and the remaining Grand Prix, Super Grand Prix, and the Golden League in the following July became the top priority.

Zhang Pingqiu looked at the few people present, coughed slightly, and said: "Director Yu of the center also asked in private, where has Su Zu changed his step count recently, and now the wind direction of the media outside is a little wrong. Li Zhizhong listened to Zhang Pingqiu talk about the call he received from China last night, and his expression suddenly sank.

In his opinion, although Su Zu's performance in the 00m event has dropped significantly, and he has not even run into the 0 second mark this year, he has always been within 0 seconds, which is not bad in any case.

Li Zhizhong studied in Europe and the United States, and from the ideology and many inner cultures, he actually understands that the rise of Su Zu won the world record, and he will naturally be attacked by the masses.

In 200, Asafa Powell, Tyson Gay, Leonard Scott and other strong players were challenging one after another, but the end result was that Suzu broke the world record three times.

For a time, the world was silent. At this moment, it seems that Su Zu has weakened, and Su Zu, who almost won all kinds of Grand Prix and Golden League in 200, failed to win the three Grand Prix races at the beginning of the 2007 season, which made many European and American media seize the opportunity.

For the media, it is easy to praise a person, and it is not too simple to sing down a person. Of course, the serious media are not directly involved in the direction of the wind, or report very little, after all, there must be evidence.

But some of the media outlets, known for their lace journalism and undisciplinedness, will naturally become a little unscrupulous. As for the voices of Su Zu's team and even many domestic media, it is the reason why Su Zu changed his running skills.

A lot of people can still ignore it and selectively forget something. This kind of thing is normal for athletes, it's just a matter of changing the technique, and there are a few top sprinters who haven't changed it, and they are adjusting with their performance and physical condition.

Even Morris Green's running style at his peak is different from the way he is running in the middle and late stages of his career now.

It's just that at present, on Su Zu, a lot of things have been magnified.

"What do you think of it yourself?" Li Zhizhong glanced at Su Zu on the side and asked. Su Zu was silent, and for a while he didn't expect to cause such a turmoil.

As Li Zhizhong said, the slip in the 00-meter score of the three Grand Prix is actually in the eyes of people, and professional coaches and athletes can see that he is changing the rhythm.

But the media doesn't care about you, it's still that he just fell to about 0 seconds, if it's really 0 seconds 0, 0 seconds 20 away, then I'm afraid it's going to be a reversal.

It is said that for athletes, ups and downs in performance are the norm, like Liu Yangyu has also had injuries and then paid, and his performance has declined appropriately, compared with his peak record-breaking results.

But the 0-meter hurdles are really incomparable to the 00-meter hurdles at all. Just looking at the results of the 00 meters, it will make people very sensitive.

The 0-meter hurdles go from 2.88 seconds to 3.20 and 30 seconds, and ordinary people don't seem to have a strong numerical difference.

But in the 00m event, the peak is 9.72 seconds to 0.05 seconds, because of the numerical value, it feels really a little wrong to look at it.

In particular, Su Zu's performance has been rising all the way over the years, and it has been extremely stable, and since he ran into 0 seconds, this is the first time that he has not scored 0 seconds in three consecutive Grand Prix.

Well, as for the time of 9.48 seconds in that 200-meter race, it is estimated that many people have chosen to ignore it.

"We talked about it at the beginning, if you change, it will definitely take a while for you to get back to the same level, and you will have to bear the same pressure." Li Zhizhong sighed softly,

"Now it seems that your skills have not been perfected, and you have rushed into the game, and the decline in your performance has been in an uproar."

"If you want me to say, let's just run 200 meters recently." Zhang Pingqiu said on the side, looking at Su Zu as he spoke,

"Put the 00 meters first, anyway, no one will be able to break your record now." They are all people in a team, what is the specific situation of Su Zu, Zhang Pingqiu, including other Yu Yaling, Yi Zhen, and even Jiang Daheng are very clear.

This is not a crisis, but it is questioned and smeared, no matter who sees it, it is uncomfortable, and the power of public opinion, sometimes, will really be pointed out by thousands of people, and it will end up in nothing.

Su Zu thought for a while, and was also considering Zhang Pingqiu's proposal. There is no doubt that it is now the most appropriate choice to leave the 00-meter track and run the 200-meter track instead.

His 200m was not affected by the change of rhythm in the 00m, because no matter how the 00m was changed, as long as the acceleration was sufficient and his ability to maintain his current speed, he could make up for it in the middle and second half of the back corner into the straight.

It's just that...... Recently, in training and a few Grand Prix, he feels that he has almost found the rhythm of the game, although it is still unstable, and it is much worse than the rhythm that he once went from Hedao City all the way to the national team Olympic and World Championships.

But for half a year, I was almost completely addicted to the improvement, and I would even dream in the middle of the night and run and run, and suddenly woke up instantly.

Like the ancient calligraphy master Mi Fu in 5 taels of silver on the white paper to write, do not pen, repeatedly figured out and then started.

And Su Zu is thinking and training at the same time, an athlete of his level, it is no longer enough to rely solely on the guidance of the coach, he also needs to take the initiative to think by himself.

"Let's run the next 200 meters." Li Zhizhong looked at Su Zu with his eyes. The 200 meters have plenty of time to adjust and trial and error, and in terms of rhythm, Su Zu has no problem running now, even if he starts slower, and the absolute speed in the second half of the middle and second half is no problem at all.

"No, it's better to run 00 meters." Su Zu got up suddenly, and between his eyebrows and eyes, he was as firm as yesterday. At this time, he didn't want to retreat, if it was the former Su Zu, who was mixed in society and exquisite, he might accept this offer, fight back with a 200-meter score, and prove his direct strength.

But now, after five or six years of track and field training, how can he allow himself to back down?

Even if it was a strategic adjustment, he was not willing to run 200 meters. If you want to take an easier path, why choose to become a competitive sports athlete?

.. If he chooses to sprint and chooses this path, which is very difficult for him as a reborn, he is destined to face the challenge of China, which will itself include doubts and criticism from the outside world.

Facing difficulties, challenging the limit, and surpassing himself is the reason why he has been galloping on the runway.

It doesn't matter about doubts and criticisms, standing at such a peak, even if you don't do anything, there will be all kinds of criticisms sweeping in waves.

In that case, the best way to silence others is to play the field! When you fail to achieve the goals expected by others, the countless people who cheer and applaud you will naturally become scolding and pointing fingers.

But this change, Su Zu himself knows very well, it is certain. This is what he needs to face at the moment, otherwise, after 08 years, he will only be the second fastest person in the world, the third fastest person.

Even if he plays well, he may only be an Olympic runner-up and a World Championship runner-up. Such a result is unacceptable.

If you want to fight, you must strive for the first place in the world, and keep this number one all the time. I don't retire, the championship is mine; I retire, the highest mountain is mine!

As for waiting until the technique is completely improved before starting to run 00 meters, it is even more unlikely. Su Zu is an athlete, and athletes need to compete.

There is no such situation as waiting until you have reached the full level in Shilipo, and then you will be invincible in the world.

And according to Su Zu's age, this is also the last chance for him to change the technology now, and in a few years, there is basically no possibility of making any technical changes.

At that time, only some small details can be optimized, which is meaningless for the overall improvement.

In the conference room, Zhang Pingqiu watched Su Zu leave, and was a little speechless for a while. There is no doubt that Su Zu is under much more pressure than others during these periods, and although Su Zu has not shown much performance most of the time, it is clear to anyone that it will definitely be difficult to be in the center of the storm.

"Director Li, what do you think of the next ......?" Zhang Pingqiu breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Li Zhizhong, although he is an assistant coach, he does not have a lot of experience in dealing with the media and the like, and the game arrangement in the team depends on the head coach.

Li Zhizhong also stood up, looked at the next event schedule in his notebook, sighed slightly, and said solemnly: "Before the World Championships in Osaka on August 25, we have time to compete in the Golden League in Paris on July 0, the Lausanne Super Grand Prix on July 0, the Rome Golden League on July 3, the Sheffield Grand Prix on July 5, the IAAF Grand Prix in Madrid on July 2, the Monaco Super Grand Prix on July 28, and the London Super Grand Prix on August 3, August 7 Stockholm Grand Prix. Excluding the Asian-African Games on July 2, which has been decided not to participate, there are a total of eight matches such as the Golden League and the Super Grand Prix that I can participate in, so I don't believe in this evil! Others can run out with competition training, and Su Zu can definitely do it. Li Zhizhong said it loudly, and it was obvious that after Su Zu made it impossible to back down, he gave the greatest support within the scope of his authority.

What athletes want is this ruthlessness, since Su Zu himself thinks so, he, as a master, will not dismantle his stage anyway, but will only do his best to support it.

"Understood." Seeing this, Zhang Pingqiu also nodded solemnly. In the past half a year, Su Zu's efforts have been seen by the whole team, and in addition to his daily training, Su Zu has basically spent most of his time this year constantly trying to improve his skills.

Forcibly changing a few years of running habits requires a lot more effort than most people think.

…… On the track and field, the sound of puffy footsteps sounded again. One lap, another lap, on the 400-meter standard track, after Su Zu jogged for five laps and two kilometers of warm-up, he slowly stopped panting.

Seeing that the colors on the plastic runway seemed to have become much brighter because of the rendering of the summer morning sun, the depressed breath in his heart was also discharged in this round of running.

Since embarking on the road of competitive sports, his entire life focus and goal has been on the track, and everything he has run on this track today.

"I love to run, and I will definitely run well!" Su Zu clenched his fists slightly and said silently.

He didn't take this pressure of public opinion to heart, he was just bent on changing the pace and making himself run faster.

As for the pressure of public opinion and the media, he is already very clear about the coming era of information explosion.

Walk above others, and all will not! That's it! And he just believes that his change is necessary and he will be able to run faster!

Pacing slowly on the track and field, calming down some rapid breathing after warming up, and when his strength was almost recovered, he slowly walked to the starting line of the 00-meter track.

Standing in front of the starting line, Su Zu looked at the finish line 100 meters away, and slowly mobilized his emotions as he had done countless training and competitions.

The track and field field is very cold, the people of the research team are still in meeting, and the staff of the French Athletics Association did not appear so early at ** o'clock in the morning.

He's alone. But Su Zu regarded it as a game at the moment. There were no opponents, no teammates, no coaches on the track, only he stood in front of the starting line, but he prepared very seriously, as if he was on the field at the moment.

I changed my spikes, carefully checked the starting gear, and slowly mobilized my own emotions step by step.

Emotional mobilization before the game has always been an important part of the game. You can't be too excited, or think about slapping the media who were singing about him before the game, and you can't be too low and calm and lose the heart to go in.

Stay focused, get your body and mind properly excited, but suppress it, keep your head cool and not be moved by external objects.

Waiting, stepping on the starting gear, the moment the gun sounds, follow your most natural state to run.

The pain of forcibly changing one's familiar running rhythm is here, and getting the body to adapt to the new stride length and rhythm takes time, and it takes one practice at a time.

Just like an ordinary person who has completed a 00-meter run according to his physical habits, regardless of the results for the time being, the second trip you make every step a little larger or smaller than the stride just now, this kind of uncomfortable energy, needless to say.

What's more, a professional sprinter, with a large number of repeated daily running exercises, has formed an inherent rhythm, and it will become particularly painful to suddenly break the change.

"I'm in the Circle at the moment, I'm playing against Asafa Powell, it's Justin Gatlin, it's Tyson Gay, it's John Blake, it's Usain Bolt...... The eyes of the audience are staring at us, they want to witness who will be the champion and who will be the fastest runner on the planet......" Su Zu walked onto the starting block, his mind simulating the fastest sprinters in the world today, leaning over and bowing his head, pressing his hands on the starting line, listening to the upcoming gunshots.

In official competitions, in competitions with strong competitors, he trains differently than usual, and I will be under different pressure.

A lot of the techniques and paces that I thought I had improved might be pushed off by other players, or I couldn't get the best out of myself.

I want to be calm and at the same time boiling!

“SET！” The sound of the starter's preparation was already ringing in his ears, and without all distractions, only one voice awaited in his head.

Syllable! Gunshots rang out! Start, accelerate, and keep your pace...... The new rhythm has been adapted, the start is very fast, the stride is perfect, and the rhythm is smooth...... Run!

Accelerate, accelerate! Everything is under control...... The finish line is already in sight! Rush the line! Champion!

Record! Before the finish line, Su Zu crossed his hands on his hips, panting, turned around and looked at the 00-meter track he had just run, and recalled all the action points in his mind over and over again!

No one clocked, no one videotaped, no one saw, just like when he was an obscure little athlete.

Wait, wait...... Cat flutter Chinese
